Bob, I find most of them from the H.A.M.B. This thread is full of really good pictures. Some are questionable due to a real lack of automotive focus, but there are many that are unique and very interesting. There are literally thousands of posts on this thread: http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/s...d.php?t=428585

I also look through Google Images a lot as well as other sites that come up here and there. Glad you enjoy them.

No SN-60, not a Champion, a -55 Commander Starlight & the same car that's right here next to my text with me beside it in the summer of -63.
& in my opinion Studebakers was actually made for being driven & that's the only reason why I got mine!

#1257 is a great photo! Back when your neighborhood SERVICE station could be used for a community event!

Yep: It looks like they are trying to "hit" 3,000 gallons of gasoline sold to benefit "the stadium." Note the graph that says GALLONS right next to the "Let's Hit the 3000 mark" admonition. BP

I wish these girls would move out of the way, I can't see the Stude!!

[Noxnabaker]

Yep davepink53, there's loads of gals everywhere (& I really don't mind...) but way to few Studebakers!
& Studebakers hardly ever stands in the way...
